"Luckily there is a gas station that is walking distance. Pool and spa were nice. Bathrooms were clean.
The only downside is the noise from the highway. Oh, cell service is not good."
"Stayed a week here to have access to GCNP and the surrounding NM and NPs within 2 hours of Flagstaff.
The private bathrooms were cleaned daily in the AM and the sites were relatively level."

"It is just North of Williams, which is a pretty neat little town, and about an hour away from the Grand Canyon South entrance, on highway 64. Follow GPS/Google Maps to get here. "
"Plenty of room to spread out, different scenery depending on where you park & how far in you drive."
$26 - $52 / night
"There is no dog park but there is a walk around path. There are a lot of weeds around the perimeter"

$30 - $300 / night
"We came in late on a Saturday evening and had to settle for a roadside spot with no shade."
"The campgrounds are surrounded by trees next to the lake. Although camp is not right next to the lake you can see it from most campsites."
"Could only get one night at the Mather CG in Grand Canyon, so we went boondocking just outside of the National Park in Kaibab NF. "

$26 / night
"Primitive camping in beautiful, cool Arizona forest. Most campsites offer a lot of privacy. Dirt roads are a bit rough, so SLOW is an important word!"
"Had to walk around to avoid bee entering mouth while eating. And putting away washed dishes was a challenge to keep none from entering storage bag. Otherwise the ospreys were awesome."
GuideOn our way around the west from Louisiana our first major stop was the Grand Canyon. After a long day of driving and exploring we needed a spot to set up for the evening. I came across this spot on here and it did not disappoint.
This spot was just off of our route out of the park. Off 64/desert view dr. Turn onto coconino rim road / fire rd 310 and go down the dirt road until you cross over the cattle guard. We found a lovely spot right by the Kaibab national forest sign.
The spots are not clearly marked but one had a picnic table. Some had fire rings, although there was a burn ban due to the Dragon Bravo Fire at the north rim.
We set up and had a very peaceful sleep. It got a lot cooler in the evening into morning. The morning was slow, which never happens. We sat around listening to nature come alive for the day while we made breakfast and charged our battery packs.
All in all, highly recommend this spot. My Honda odyssey did great getting back there. There are no facilities and no hook ups.
TravelerIt's just really nice with enough sites for at least twenty people to stay, thirty or more with tents squeezed in everywhere. On weekends and holidays it's crowded.
ScoutThe coordinates got you exactly where you need to be. Please Keep driving as there are way better sites past there. Make sure to have a vehicle that can take a ton of dirt, gravel and some rocks. This sit has an AMAZING view. It’s always super windy as you are on the side of a cliff. All dirt if you’re on the edge and many trees. Some sites don’t have many so being a canopy just in case. Very stunning location.
TravelerStayed here 2 nights. This is a no frills place, but it's clean, and the sights are big.
ScoutVery busy area. Had to drive several miles down multiple roads to find an unoccupied spot on a random Monday in July. Many pullouts are blocked by barricades as well (I'm assuming for rehabilitation).
GuideOne of the lost gens above Flagg. Very quiet. Super starry nights. You got the Lava and Kendrick right around the corner. Spots are big and wide. Cell service is solid. The best is that in the hottest part of July/Aug at night here it is 55.
GuideThe main road is well maintained. Sites are spread out, and many choices are available. The sites seem very level. We didn't need leveling blocks at our spot. Even the trees are spaced enough to provide enough sun for solar panels. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and drove past 10 open sites before we found one perfect for our needs.
TravelerWe came in during the evening, just right after the sun set and it was a little hard to find a spot. I thought we would be able to set up a fire once we got there but I didn’t see online that there was a fire ban so if you come here just make sure you check that before. Wasn’t as dispersed as I thought it would be, when we woke up in the morning we realized that we were pretty close to people. Got to see the beautiful night sky so bright. It was absolutely breathtaking, we’ll definitely be back!
ScoutVery nice campground with tent sites, cabins/lodging, and RV sites. Recently added additional 50A back-in sites. That back up to a cinder-block wall, behind which are homes. Quite challenging getting a 40’ 5th wheel into the area but once there, was quite comfortable. Quiet campground with terrific neighbors. Plenty of room for slides on each side.
